5,-5/2,5/4,-5/8 what is the 5th term

5/16

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio is -5/2 / 5 = -1/2

Xn = 5 × (-1/2)^(n-1)

X5 = 5 × (-1/2)^(5-1)

X5 = 5 × (-1/2)^(4) = 5/16

the formula of a slope:

from a table we have

substitute:

the slope of f(x) is -1.

the graph of funcfion g(x) is a horizontal line. the slope of a horizontal line is equal 0. therefore the slope of g(x) is 0.

-1 < 0
